Foundation bolts are mainly used in pre-engineered buildings manufacturing, fastening heavy machines to foundations,and construction. They are also used in process-based businesses like petrochemical, sugar, and FMCG manufacturing. It is mostly used for industrial purposes and therefore made with heavy duty stainless steel or carbon steel. However, at ITA Fasteners, we can manufacture customised foundation bolts with any material of your request.

The type of foundation bolt you should opt for depends on various factors like the size of the machine the foundation bolts are to be used on and the forces you expect the machine to withstand.

Foundation Bolts Setting - The Process

Foundation bolts are mostly used to set machines on concrete floorings. Here is how the process goes:

Initially, the position of the bolts is marked on the ground. Then, dimensionally accurate holes are dug in their exact positions. The bolts are then suspended on their respective holes and the concrete is poured around it. Once the concrete sets, the suspensions are removed and the machine is installed.
